I’ve chosen some blues that include a couple of retired Stampin’ Up colors. It’s nice to use some of my older supplies! The layout for this card is from the current Freshly Made Sketches challenge. The card looked a little plain once I got it all put together. I wanted to dress it up a bit, but still keep the card within Operation Write Home guidelines, so I decided to add some tiny rhinestones to work as the ornament hangers. They don’t show too well in the photo, but they do add a bit of sparkle in real life.

How will you depict a “blue Christmas”? Be sure to link your card at the 52{C}CT site by 1:00 p.m. Eastern time Friday, January 16. We’d love to see what you create! Thanks for stopping by today.

You are going WAY back with the Blue Bayou!! I love both Baja Breeze and Blue Bayou and am definitely saving it for special cards! The ornaments have a fun look and work just perfectly with the angled panels. Thank you for playing along with us at Freshly Made Sketches.
